To celebrate the 2nd anniversary of the Graxx II, Origine has given its Graxx more than just a facelift, it has given it a makeover with the release of the third generation.
This is nothing new at Origine, the constant search for excellence being the leitmotif of the brand, it has not been satisfied with aesthetic developments. The Graxx also evolves in its carbon recipe to further optimize the performance / comfort / ease / solidity ratio.
In addition to this classic version of the Graxx, Origine has decided to create an ultimate version in terms of performance. A series designed for performance without denying the essence of its bikes by retaining these notions of ease / comfort / reliability thanks to Dynamic Response. Two bike profiles stand out, without range classification, for an even wider range of practices.
The Graxx GTO is the equivalent of the Graxx you know, it retains its qualities, the ability to ride long distances, to perfectly filter out terrain imperfections, extreme ease and comfort in all circumstances. The Graxx GTO benefits from the molding developments developed on the Axxome III, including the optimization of the EPS molding of the GTO series. The carbon fiber is compacted in an even more linear way over a larger surface. With the result that it is even more solid while retaining exactly the same dynamic qualities that made the Graxx II famous. By acting on this compacttagand the direct consequence is improved comfort.
The Graxx GTR is designed for explosive acceleration., fast-paced courses and races where the average is the most important. Always with the ease and comfort that characterizes Origine bikes. The Graxx GTR adopts the Unique Matrix Layup molding technology developed on our GTR series route. Origin has adapted the fiber and its density to the constraints of a Gravel practice whose technical commitment can challenge the mountain bike.
This GTR series represents all the brand's know-how in terms of innovation, mastery and modeling of fiber and performance. It is directly the competition that inspired this bike, the brand has accumulated the feedback from its team on short, long, rolling, accidental formats, mytagneux or flat to develop this machine to break the chronos. The two series also receive the CCT + rear triangle always with the aim of a Dynamic Response always as pronounced, as well as an optimal filtration.
The visible part: integration
No more exposed wiring, the Graxx offers integration that is not just aesthetic. Besides the visual aspect, the integration offers some advantagestagare especially famous for a practice bikepacking. First of all, it is good to remember that Origine developed this integration with the Fraxion, used on the Axxome III, it wanted a perfect and above all perfectly fluid integration, so that the sheaths and hoses do not in any way constrain the rotation of the pilot station.tage, or worse, hire the pilot positiontage on the wrong angle. The development of this integration took months on the Fraxion, Origine was not going to hold back from declining this recipe. Thanks to this integration, the steering is even more fluid than with visible sheaths and hoses which could sometimes restrict the pilot's position.tage. This way you can let go of the handlebars with complete peace of mind when it comes to swallowing your refreshments, putting your jacket on or taking it off, handling your GPS, or rummaging through your panniers.
The advantagestagis :
• Without visible cables; fitting a handlebar bag becomes child's play. No need to negotiate or think: you put it on, take it off, put it back on, without asking any questions.
• No friction of the cables on the steering socket.
• More fluidity.
• In performance use without luggage, the bike is more aerodynamic.
• Integration into the frame of the power cable linked to the lighting.
Why not bigger?
Origine has also chosen to keep exactly the same compatible tire sections, namely maximum 700×45 and 650×47. Why not bigger? Versatility. Bigger is making technical choices that automatically segment a bike by giving up versatility. The Graxx is an ultra-versatile gravel bike that can link up sections off road engaged in high montagno, chain together the kilometers of tracks with the sensation of piloting a flying carpet, go on a trip in total autonomy but also can be mounted super light for use route endurance and complete the Tour Stage or a Marmotte.
As Origine insists, the Graxx is not a Swiss Army knife: a Swiss Army knife combines a multitude of average tools while The Graxx excels on any terrain it is designed for. All the feedback from the field over the last 2 years converges in this direction. This versatility has been widely demonstrated by users over the last 2 years and in the hands of ambassadors. Haloed and mistreated on the Bikingman route and gravel, on short gravel formats like the Roc d'Azur, roughed up by Axel Carion from Chile to Sri Lanka for 2 years, the Graxx wandered in bikepacking me on routes and paths of Europe, and also held the wheels in the fast pack Sunday. The professionals in the sector have not been mistaken, the gravel stay organizer Gravel Up has decided to equip its fleet with Graxx.
New frame, new fork
The recipe is the same as for the OGV II, comfortable, precise and rigid, the OGV III receives new eyelets for even more versatility in the possibility of attaching luggage racks.
